a. five

Step-by-step explanation:

25% of the purchase price, 130, is

0.25(130) = 32.50

Since the repair shop charges $8 per repair, this means it would take

32.50/8 = 4.0625 repairs for the warranty to pay for itself.  However, we cannot have a decimal portion of a repair; thus it would take 5 times.

ou would have 12 of each
